Re- Runs

I've been off for a few and not too terribly motivated, I saw this elsewhere and thought- yes of course; a few lines from the movie “Return of the Living Dead”:

Paramedic #1 : You have no pulse, your blood pressure’s zero-over-zero, you have no pupillary response, no reflexes and your temperature is 70 degrees.Freddy : Well, what does that mean?Paramedic #1 : Well, it’s a puzzle because, technically, you’re not alive. Except you’re conscious, so we don’t know what it means.Freddy : Are you saying we’re dead?Paramedic #2 : Well, let’s not jump to conclusions.Freddy : Are you saying we’re dead?Paramedic #2 : No conclusions.Paramedic #1 : Obviously I didn’t mean you were really dead. Dead people don’t move around and talk.
